I have owned this car for close to 9 yrs... yesterday when I tried to take my car out of park, the pedal went to the floor. Obviously I have no brakes now, but where do I begin to look for the brake lines? The brake fluid was definitely coming out every time I pumped the brakes after that... luckily I was in my own driveway when it happened. Pls help. Thx!

Are you asking how to find the leak? Or where to get new lines?

Line is bought in bulk and cut/bent/flared by hand to fit.

Get the car up on a rack and walk around looking at it using a portable polychromatic non-coherent photon generator.

The absolute best way for YOU to find the leak is... to have it towed to a shop. If you have to ask how to find a brake leak you shouldn't be fixing it...
